Origin:
The word "intercession" originates from the Latin verb intercedere, which means "to go between" or "to intervene". It is composed of the prefix inter- ("between") and the verb cedere ("to go").
In ancient Roman law, intercessio referred to the act of a magistrate or other official intervening to prevent an action or decision. In the Christian tradition, the term was adopted to describe the role of Christ as an intercessor between God and humanity.
Over time, "intercession" came to be used more broadly to refer to any act of intervening on behalf of another, whether through prayer, negotiation, or advocacy. It is often used in a religious context to describe the act of praying to God on behalf of someone else.
